The Beaumont Bridge Studio wants to spread the love for a challenging game with more than 15 trillion hand possibilities.

Saturday they hope to fill their studio with card-game enthusiasts wanting to learn or re-learn the game.

"You can't learn bridge in a day," member Don Moss said. "But we're going to teach people the basics of bridge: evaluating hands, counting points, keeping score, bidding and what it takes to open a hand."

The six-hour session, modeled after a class Moss attended in Lake Charles, begins at 10 a.m. Saturday. The studio will provide lunch and the game.
